Genetics and muscle pathology in the diagnosis of muscular dystrophies: An update
Muscular dystrophies are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders involving the skeletal muscles. They have a progressive clinical course and are characterized by muscle fiber degeneration.

Emery-Dreifuss myopathy can be associated with a cardiomyopathy and cardiac dysrhythmias. The inheritance pattern of Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) is X linked, whereas EDMD2 is autosomal dominant.

Muscle‐Specific Kinase Signaling and Its Therapeutic Potential
ABSTRACT The function of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is compromised in many neuromuscular diseases (NMDs) such as autoimmune or congenital myasthenia gravis (MG), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), and muscular dystrophies.

[A boy with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy].
We reported a 12-year-old boy with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EMD). He was born after uncomplicated full term pregnancy and delivery. There was neither consanguinity nor a history of neuromuscular disorders or cardiac diseases in his family. He walked at 14 months. Toe walking was recognized at age 5 years.

An investigation of emerin and nuclear lamins: : Interactions, distribution, and role in cell cycle regulation, in cells derived from EDMD patients. [PDF]
Emery Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) is caused by mutations either in the gene encoding emerin or in the gene encoding A-type lamins (lamins A and C).

Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy: anatomical-clinical correlation (case report) [PDF]
We report on a man that had weakness of humeroperoneal distribution associated with limited range of motion of the cervical spine and elbows since he was 5 years old . At age 26 he developed tachycardia episodes.

Oxidative Stress, Inflammation and Connexin Hemichannels in Muscular Dystrophies
Muscular dystrophies (MDs) are a heterogeneous group of congenital neuromuscular disorders whose clinical signs include myalgia, skeletal muscle weakness, hypotonia, and atrophy that leads to progressive muscle disability and loss of ambulation.
